I have five Gulpers together in a 135g, I feed them each one jumbo shrimp every other day :)

I was wondering, if they eat hikari's massivore delite pellets because I was thinking about having a bag underneath its tank in case i run out of shrimp again.

It seems it is going to be a mission impossible to get my hands on a couple of these fellas here in Sweden! :( Too bad, cos it's an awesome fish!
